When did you get your BLNR? I got Mine 2 years ago and it was in demand then but it's crazy now :)

BLNR was last December. Just walked into Watches of Switzerland Regent street and they had one hidden away in the back. Really surprising, as it was literally a week before Xmas. Daytona came in 10 days later, same thing.

Well done!!! I had a white dial SS Daytona that I waited for but didn't bond with it and ended up flipping it.

I much prefer the BLNR I think it's an incredible watch. I also love the new Air king so much and picked one of them up a few weeks ago before price increase.

Saw today one GMT II LN in WoS Canary Wharf available in display in case anyone interested.

I live in Australia but am visiting the UK soon and wondering about picking up a GMTII BLNR but it sounds like that might be hard to find!

'might be hard to find' is the understatement of the year!...try 'impossible'

At UK list price of £6550? Probably not a chance.
However there are many around £1-2k more at grey sellers.

I just spotted the most expensive one recently at £8500.

Definitely worth you having a ring or visit to some ADs but I'll be staggered if you find a BLNR at an AD at list without being on a list.

Good luck of course.

What about the 39mm Oyster Perpetual with Rhodium dial? Are they readily available? Thanks.

I would recommend a quick day trip to Denmark. Was there in January and their main AD in Copenhagen had everything most people could want including the BLNR (but not the Ceramic Daytona of course...). Pricing in DKR is not as attractive as the UK, but once you get your VAT refunded as you will be able to as a non EU resident (between 17-19.5% depending on spend) it's pretty good!

[Andad]

News flash.

Don't come to Oz.

Bugger all available over here.

Hello, as above, OP is not a hard to get model.

[Dirty Tool]

A nice selection at Fraser Hart, Brent cross this evening - they had a Sub No date, Explorer I and a Explorer II with a white dial, 2x TT subs (1 blue and 1 black). They had some daytona's (not SS of course) and a spread of YM I and II's.

Great, thanks! Just need to see whether I can find a cheaper source now...

Iconic watches are offering £40 off lol.
If you find one in stock, the rrp is £4,150, I'd push for the £150 off and be delighted if you get it...they may let you walk.

Back from winter cruise only the other month.

Every model available in the West indies.

LV, BLNR, SUBS, GMT, EXP, you name the model they have it.

Prices through the roof mind...

Make sure you try it on, I found it very underwhelming on the wrist.
The blue on the other hand I think looks better on the wrist. However in oh it's I much preferred the Rhodium.

I'm in the market for an explorer 39mm. What are my chances of finding one at an AD?
